Second Mortgage
A closed-end second mortgage, also known as a closed-end home equity loan, is a type of loan that allows homeowners to borrow a lump sum of money using their home as collateral. This loan is called a “second” mortgage because it is taken out in addition to the primary mortgage. Unlike an open-end second mortgage or a home equity line of credit (HELOC), a closed-end second mortgage provides the entire loan amount upfront and does not allow for additional withdrawals once the loan is disbursed.
